1 - what are all the computer specs needed for chrome with 100-1000+ tabs to run smoothly?

1 - what are all the computer specs needed for chrome with 100-1000+ tabs to run smoothly?

 

8g ram on win10 is not enough, need 16g ram

 

opening lots of tabs makes computer very slow -- for a long long time..

 

what are the specs to resolve all these problems

 

2 - would using chrome on win10 or chromeos make any signficant difference or no?

 

3 - are there any key tests to run on the current computer (and to test on future new computer to make sure all is working stable)? to see what's up with chrome?

Why? 

 

No

 

Why?

 

what possible reason do you have to require 100+ tabs all being open constantly and to have them each time you open chrome,.

 

Of course it's going to be slow, that's a lot of stuff that needs to open when opening one program and will generally need to reload all the pages which will leach your internet bandwidth hard

I'm a tab junkie, I usually have ~60-150 tabs open. It's not to not need to punch in a web adress every time you want to go somewhere else on the web. 

 

 

I would recommend 16GB of ram and a decent dual core with HT CPU as a minimum. My 8GB i5 6200U works fine though for around 80 tabs constantly

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

You know bookmarking is a thing, right?

 

32 gigs of ram and at least a hyperthreaded quad core. Mostly depends on what kind of tabs are open though

I am always logged in and I don't want bookmarks to sync between my laptop and desktop.

I don't think you need 32GB of RAM though, you might seeing as I have never reached 1000 tabs open though. But the CPU is for sure overkill.

I managed to get chrome to use 71% of my old FX4300 (5GHz) and 12 gigs of ram running about 200-230 tabs in 2 windows.

Probably because after you hit 60 tabs, things become irrelevant. It's a silly question that will only get people to laugh and make fun of you. Chrome OS isn't going to magically make your PC handle having 60-100 tabs any easier, mostly because the chromebooks out there are NOT designed to handle anywhere near that level of load. And no, there's no way to test that kind of thing to see what works better. No one cares. If you have a chromebook, you just aren't using it for that kind of webpage browsing.

Mostly RAM amount, the 80 tabs i have open on my laptop only use a few % of its I5 6200u

I need screenshots of some kind of proof that you're running 150 tabs in chrome. There's no way. The browser speed tanks like crazy due to the strain on your connection. Unless you're running a Fiber connection of some sort, you're gonna throttle super hard.

I don't have 150 tabs now, think only about 40 since I had to do a clean install of Chrome and haven't built up my tabs much yet. I'm also around 2/3 of Sweden away from home so I can't screencap that lol

Wow, I have never seen someone require 1000+ tabs open at once. You must be big on multitasking.

Yeah. But how can you even know what the tabs are without a 20 foot screen? With that many tabs, it won't even have room for levels. OP, you have earned my respect if you can memorize 1000 tabs.

Or the OP's. How are you supposed to remember what they all are? And I'd think your CPU or network would bog down before the RAM.

Is chrome itself even able to handle that many tabs properly? Especially if a few hundred of them have any type of videos or resource hog auto-play ads.

cpu like the other cmmenter said is at most maybe 10-20% - dont check its never a problem

 

ram is 95% currently

 

internet is never a porblem, sites dont need a constant internet connection im guessing i dont know

 

lots of ppl haev lots of tabs

 

no we dont memorise them, that's not how you use chrome 

 

there been many attempts at solving the tab problems, various chroem extensions etc.

 

hard challanege need innovative solutions

 

chroem has done various thing over time to make better the tab probelms as well

1 - what are all the computer specs needed for chrome with 100-1000+ tabs to run smoothly?

8g ram on win10 is not enough, need 16g ram

opening lots of tabs makes computer very slow -- for a long long time..

what are the specs to resolve all these problems

2 - would using chrome on win10 or chromeos make any signficant difference or no?

3 - are there any key tests to run on the current computer (and to test on future new computer to make sure all is working stable)? to see what's up with chrome?

It doesn't really matter how many tabs are open, it depends on what is in the tabs.

I typically would have 400+ tabs open in chrome at any one moment at work, don't have any issues on an i7 3770 with 8GB RAM.
